i know, they had me bring it down to using only 2 cores on task manager and it lagged like friggin crazy. the other thread you are refering to, was me lol. i really think they got tired of hearing from me and gave me crysis 2 to shut me up. so in all, i purchased this game for $20, 3 days after i bought it they gave me a $20 credit and i bought mass effect 2(great game btw) and then they gave me crysis 2(acually gave me 2 copies, normal and limited edition) so they gave me $160 worth of games for $20...not a bad investment.

its not just you, it does it to me all the time. its really annoying but its just something i have learned to live with. at least every other match it just drops me to desktop with no error report or anything.

I had the same problem Saturday when I purchased this game from STEAM.

Here is how I fixed it.

-COMPLETELY UNINSTALL THE PROGRAM
-Erase it from existence from your computer (a simple program uninstall will suffice)
-Restart your computer
-Re-download the game client from STEAM or wherever
-Re-Install
-Run the game client with administrator rights (I ran mine in windowed mode cause I'm not using Eyefinity yet)
-In settings change the VOICEOVER LANGUAGE to Localized and YOUR SOUND SYSTEM to Default setting
-Disable VOICE OVER IP completely
-Close Settings

I think that is all I did to make mine worked after hours of reading about it on the net it turns out there are some sound issues with the game. I logged 10 hours of playtime after these fixes (multi-player and single campaign) without it locking up once.

I can't be 100% sure this is all I did as I am at work atm and have a bad memory, I'll confirm later tonight, I was just going off a screenshot someone posted of the settings lol.

Hope it helps, but maybe I'll call EA to complain and get a free copy of Crisis 2 as well Edited by ajmidd12 - 4/11/11 at 11:06am

I spent a whole weekend trying to fix this game that used to work. It worked fine with my i5 5850 both oced. i7 2600k 6970 ctd and freeze all the time.

Nothing fixed it except this. DX10. Stable just confirmed. Dx11 looks somuch better the shadows are sharper and softer. But I will have to do with dx10 till they fix it it. Only one more thing left for me to try and that is dx11 with 1 core enabled (which would result in crappy performance and a stupid waste of a i7)

I had that same issue when the game originally came out, and was running on an AMD quad, so it's not architecture. I forget exactly what I did to fix it, but if memory serves correctly it was a driver issue with the Video Card.

I haven't read through the whole thread but have you gotten rid of your drivers completely and reinstalled the latest?
